Legends Jetfire and Optimus Merged Pictures

Below are three images that show the Legends Jetfire and Optimus Prime merged together. This is supposedly related to the rumor that the toy line has the two combine much like they did for Armada and Energon toylines (I think). Frankly it looks like the person just strapped Jetfire onto Optimus' back. I doubt Hasbro would bother to engineer a merge solution for toys in the Legends line even if the merge rumors are true. More then likely the person is just hoping the images will spike the sale of the toy when it is put up on eBay.

Yeah, that's a fake. Look at the arms - Jetfire's upper arms are in the ball joint socket on Optimus' shoulders. The only way to do that is to actually swap the arms. This ain't no combiner!"

Jetfire's arms are all silver not black. Those are Prime's upper arms not Jetfire's. And yes this IS a combiner (a simple one at that) and NO you cannot judge the way the CGI version (the only version that really matters) is going to look. I bet the CGI version will have Jetfire form some kind of armor for Prime AND provide him with flight. So you know the CGI version is going to be way more complex seeing how large an SR71 Blackbird is much larger than Prime. Maybe Jetfire forms an exo suit around Prime since he is so big in the movie, who knows.... There is no way in heck you can judge the CGI version to this cheap little toy.....THAT WOULD BE STUPID!

Hasn't anyone read at seibertron.com a while ago that a toy company had liscensed to produce a Prime/Jetfire combiner for ROTF? They did. It is real. This little thing looks so stupid that the CGI one just has to be quite impressive. We mock this little piece of trash, but I'll bet we all are gasping with our mouths open when we see this on the big screen.

Acctually in Costa Rica the toys are usually selled at double the price of what they are sold in the US. At any mayor toy store, at the specialliced collectors stores, they usually sell them for much, much more. i had to pay around 100 dollars for my leader class optimus prime and the same for megatron, in one of the normal toy stores
